Probably August 9th and it'll be outdoors, so I have no idea how I could do that.

At least share pictures.

Sure, in a more appropriate thread.

FFXI related: Corsair was fun to play, until I had to level up Ranger and my Marksmanship skill and then start using guns. The damage is pretty good, but goddamn does it cost a lot of money. I even spent weeks building up my Alchemy and Goldsmithing skills to create my own bullets, but that only lowered the cost of a stack of 99 bullets to about 4000 gil instead of 6000 gil. I made a small profit selling them at the AH, but not enough to keep up with the amount of bullets I went through just leveling up. I still think that Phantom Rolls are a cool ability... I just wish that shooting wasn't such a waste of money.

Dancer sounds really cool, and the last thing I did a few weeks ago before canceling my account was to get the job and gain a level or two.

It'll never happen, but I would love a FFXI private server.

Congratulations, Rosencrantz!

To be fair (and I think I've mentioned this elsewhere), the ToAU jobs, having come out 4 years after launch, assume to a certain degree that you're already established in the game before you level them. PUP attachments are really expensive, BLU assumes you've got high level friends to help with your spells, and COR assumes you are either filthy rich or have leveled one of the four jobs with Crossbow access so you can get Marksmanship up without spending several million gil on bullets. You see it a bit to a lesser degree with some Zilart jobs, like NIN and SMN. As it stands, nobody really expects COR to do damage; once your skill's capped, you really only bust out the gun for Quick Draw and Light/Dark Shot.

Not saying this is good design (and was since rescinded, as DNC and SCH are easy job quests with very little overhead), but there you go.

I dont remember much about this game but moat carp. I spent way too much time fishing in this game for a fishing pole.

Fields of Valor to be expanded. I could now see getting to max level conceivably not taking too much longer than it would take to get there in WoW.

the second i finally left my party i got three invites to qufim

aaaa

Pacobird · « **Reply #234 on:** March 10, 2009, 12:52:59 PM »

Rumors say people are riding Qufim all the way to Aht Urghan in the low 50s now. So retarded.

Rosencrantz · « **Reply #235 on:** March 10, 2009, 12:57:40 PM »

Christ. I always got sick of Qufim after a couple of levels. Kazham was always a pleasant change of scenery after that (although it was annoying in its own special ways).

Norondor · « **Reply #236 on:** March 10, 2009, 01:11:11 PM »

i ended up turning down all the nice people because i don't remember how to get to Jeuno.

MIKE HELP ME GET TO JEUNO AND ALSO DO THE CHOCOBO LICENSE QUEST

Pacobird · « **Reply #237 on:** March 10, 2009, 01:50:14 PM »

hit the wiki for maps bro

As for why people ride qufim so hard now, it's the last convenient camp that has FoV quests. Beaucedine and Xarcabard are a tough trip, and Kazham may be nice and all but the Field Manual Refresh alone justifies trying to stick around.

This will probably change next patch as more zones get FoV manuals, but for now it's worth it to hang out in qufim as much as possible until 50, at least until you get to 37-40 and can hit the Ladybug/Colibri camp in Past Ronfaure.
